Rite on forty-nine rabbits

Performance / video documentation

With Giulio Maulini

2019


Video

The project aims to connect the user with a spiritual dimension that it's almost forgotten by modern contemporary human beings. A video documents the act of tattooing the body of a woman. The background of the projection is a netting composed of forty-nine rabbit skins. This symbolic blanket becomes a tapestry and altar, a sacred physical object capable of transmitting us the organic and material sense of life, throughout its powerful growth.


Victim: Cristina Treppo


Installation view at Villa Nigra
